Worshipping in Macau! =D

It's rare to be able to find a christian church in the midst of the many Catholic and Jesuits Churches around.

Wonder how I can survive a Cantonese message? Thank God for an interpreter who would whisper the message into my ears. The sharing was taken from Luke 12:35-48 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke%2012:35-48;&version=31; )
When Jesus talked about being watchful of the Lord's coming back and being ready to serve, Peter asked a classic question. "Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everyone?" in verse41. When I read this verse, I realised that Peter had more than once asked about "other people". And Jesus's answer as usual, is loving and gentle, or to some, maybe a mystery. He didn't give a straight answer. Jesus simply replied with another parable that whoever who is faithful and wise would obey and be rewarded accordingly, but whoever who knows the master's will and does not do it will be dealt with accordingly. Teach us Lord, to wait and follow after You regardless of how others would react.
Leaving Macau Baptist Church.
Seen huge pieces of BBQ meat before?
There are many different types.. and I bought an ostrich meat. Almond biscuits in the making.
These biscuits have pieces of chicken meat inside.

Wooh.. as I went back to my hotel, I realised that the noodle shop beside the Pastry Shop is just as famous too! Look at the long queue..
Almost ended up taking my lunch in the pastry shop =P

You can try about any and everything in the shop. And they are nice! I gonna come back here to buy some stuff back.Taking myself eating an egg roll in the mirror =P

And trying the portugese egg tart.
The portugese egg is really nice! Crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside.

Popping in to the Instituto Para Os Assuntos Civicos E Municipais.
Painted walls and how Macau as evolved over time.

Passed by the Post office.

And thought I'll enter it to get some stamps.

Does this stamp looks familiar? Yes, it is the exact same artwork for a series of Singapore stamps.

Walking around Jardim De S. Francisco.

That was the lower end, and this is the higher end.

Sight of Lisboa from a different angle.
Since Lisboa is within sight, why not pop into it?
Found some rather exquisite carvings in the hotel lobby.
Monkeys!
Peach Blossoms Painting.
Gold.
Casino Lisboa.
Casino Wynn.
Walking along Friendship road.

Time to leave Macau for Zhuhai!
